Chapter 648 Han An
Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao had walked far away, but they could still hear the conversations behind them. However, neither of their expressions changed.
It was only after they had walked a considerable distance and their figures had completely vanished from the sight of the young woman that Lu Yichen turned to Zhong Nianyao and asked, "That person, do you know her?"
Although it was a question, his tone was affirmative.
"Yes!" Zhong Nianyao nodded and then said with a smile, "Well, how should I put it? She could be considered a disciple of mine once upon a time."
In the past, she might have felt sad when discussing this matter, but now that her memories had awakened, when she thought of everything that had happened in Lai Country, her heart was as calm as still water, and she could even observe as an outsider, looking on indifferently.
"Once?" Lu Yichen clearly hadn’t missed that detail, "That means, not anymore."
"The girl had her ambitions!" Zhong Nianyao shook her head and continued, "Speaking of which, I was the one who named that girl! At that time, she was about ten years old, a pretty little girl. Her parents were planning to sell her to a brothel to get money for their eldest son’s wedding. At the time, I was still young, but I had already become the State Preceptor of Lai Country. I happened to pass by and witnessed the scene."
"I noticed she had a talent for divination, so I took her as my disciple and named her Han An, because it was the dead of winter when I accepted her as my disciple. I intended to train her to be my successor as State Preceptor, and then I would resign and travel the world while I was still young."
